Track Insight / Lyrics

Blue denim folds on calloused knees Torch tip writes in molten degrees Gas pumps sleep on cracked concrete Crossroads hum with tire heat He keeps watch where highways split Steel joins steel and holds the bit Sparks rain down like copper rain Night shift sings a slow refrain Gloves hung loose on fence post wire Coffee steams in tin cup fire Radio plays static hymns Headlights paint the glass rim He keeps watch where highways split Steel joins steel and holds the bit Sparks rain down like copper rain Night shift sings a slow refrain Moths orbit the buzzing sign Weld bead grows in straight line Truckers pass and truckers go He stays put in amber glow No passport stamps no ticket stubs Just metal joined where silence comes Each bead a breath each pass a prayer Holding dark together there Dawn bleeds slow on horizon rim Helmet lifts to reveal him Face streaked gray with soot and pride Another seam sealed deep inside He keeps watch where highways split Steel joins steel and holds the bit Sparks rain down like copper rain Night shift sings a slow refrain Camera packs in canvas bag Last frame catches welding slag Bus rolls up with air brake hiss Road swallows what night dismisses He keeps watch where highways split Steel joins steel and holds the bit Sparks rain down like copper rain Night shift sings a slow refrain Steel joins steel and holds the bit Shutter closes on the spark Blue denim slips in coming dark
